This series of efforts by the policy instruments facilitated expansion of the PV industry in the USA [8, 9]. In 2005, the “Energy Policy Act 2005 (ITC)” was introduced to promote PV market development, which provided a 30% investment tax credit to those who invested in PV systems.
Photovoltaic (PV) efficiency refers to the ability of a photovoltaic device, such as a solar cell or solar panel, to convert sunlight into usable electrical energy. It is expressed as a percentage and represents the ratio of electrical power output to the amount of sunlight (solar energy) input.
Supportive policies are crucial for fostering the adoption of solar photovoltaic (PV) technology. Key policies include Feed-in Tariffs (FiTs), Net Metering, Tax Incentives, Renewable Energy Credits (RECs), and Grants/Subsidies.
As solar PV technology made rapid progress closer to the 2020 targets, the SETO committed to reaching new cost targets for the upcoming decade, supporting greater energy affordability by reducing the cost of solar electricity by an additional 50% between 2020 and 2030.
While the focus is on the carbon impacts of the solar PV industry, the authors also identify other relevant aspects (such as circularity), laying the ground for a future research. Solar photovoltaic (PV) has become a relatively affordable technology and is being deployed rapidly as a pillar of the clean energy transition worldwide.
These policies aim to provide a stable revenue stream, enhance economic viability, lower upfront costs, and offer additional financial incentives. Implemented together, they create a comprehensive framework aligned with renewable energy goals, accelerating the adoption of solar PV.
